Thanks so much for this AMA. It is very timely for me, as I am at the end of my time with a 20 year old Select Comfort (yes, before they renamed themselves Sleep Number). Before that, a waterbed - yikes! I like the idea of a hybrid that doesn’t sleep hot and is on the medium side of firmness. I have some back and hip issues as well (maybe from all those years using a waterbed LOL). It looks like one of the Purple mattresses would suit me just fine, but holy price tag!
I’m probably too late to get a reply, but I’ll give it a shot anyway. What about foundations for a hybrid mattress? Would it be better to get a box spring foundation? Or is a platform sufficient? Does one over the other affect the comfort and/or longevity of the mattress? What about an adjustable base?
